Introduction
Configuration overview and prerequisites
Before we begin, let's take a look at the configuration that we are attempting to achieve and the prerequisites that make it possible.
Prerequisites:
- Two RUT/RUTX series routers with RUTOS firmware;
- An end device (PC, Laptop) for configuration;
If you're having trouble finding any page or some of the parameters described here on your device's WebUI, you should turn on "Advanced WebUI" mode. You can do that by clicking the "Basic" button under "Mode," which is located at the top-right corner of the WebUI.
Topology
RUT1 - RUTX12 as a hub. A hub is a server, to which our spoke will be connecting (IPsec responder). It will be our "default gateway" for the spoke device. RUTX12 has a LAN subnet of 192.168.11.0/24 configured on it, which should be reachable by the spoke.
RUT2 - RUT955 as a spoke. A spoke is a client, that will be connected to the spoke (IPsec initiator). It will be connected to a hub for basic internet access. RUT955 has a LAN subnet of 192.168.9.0/24 configured on it.
RUT1 (Hub) configuration
Start by configuring the hub (RUT1) device. Login to the WebUI, navigate to Services → VPN → IPsec and add a new IPsec instance. Configure everything as follows.
Note: Not specified fields can be left as is or changed according to your needs.
